Looking for large pots for my plants. Where do you get them? Is there an on-line site? I've checked Amazon but couldn't find what I need.

the Box stores usually have selections of large to very large containers made of light weight material

Our Lowe's stores have been having some good sales on large pots the past few weeks. Clearing out summer stock I would guess.

Yup, I always look for the clearance sales to buy big pots, as they can be SO expensive otherwise.

I've done well at places like Target and Wal-Mart (although I rarely shop at WM, it is next door to our Home Depot) and Big Lots. Our Target store no longer has a nursery, but they do have pots in the patio section indoors, and as Mary suggested, this is a great time of year to find clearance prices on patio stuff.

Garage sales, second hand stores and the Re-Store (Habitat for Humanity) can be another great source. Hit or miss, though.

New plant pots are out of my price range. Most of my pots come from the roadside when I see landscapers installing plants and trees. They are not attractive, um, the pots/planters are not attractive, some of the landscapers look okay. I have some friends who drop off their used pots in my yard from time to time. This batch from Elijah should be enough for a year.

Or I will use my carpentry skills to build planter boxes (much of the lumber is scrounged also), line with landscape fabric; these can be any size I choose.

Thanks, everyone. I'm going to make a run to the different stores this week.

Are you looking for decorative are functional. I have bought bulk pots and PlasticFlowerPot.net

Local Costco has some large planters/pots. But I usually get mine from a wholesale pottery outlet seller here in the Bay Area, they don't ship though, too expensive to do so.

I also frequent Big Lots, they sometimes have them too.

Lowes have really big pots for 7.00 this week. Some were big enough for trees but very light weight.

Nearly all my large pots have come from garage sales. Some amazing bargains can be had that way. This is a hand made Italian terracotta pot, 20 inches tall. that I got for $ 25..... would retail for hundreds.

I guess I should have said "decorative" pots and lightweight. Thanks for all the suggestions.
